The Boy Who Could Fly
This one's probably a deep cut for some of our listeners, but there are probably just as many of you out there who remember when this was in constant rotation on The Disney Channel. The Boy Who Could Fly has some surprisingly heavy subject matter considering its target demographic, but even more surprising is how effectively the film manages to hold all of that together. Thanks to some incredibly deft direction, what could have easily spun out into melodrama instead feels genuine and pretty darn heartwarming. Topics include: the PSA that used to run before the movie and why that maybe wasn't the worst idea in the world, unintended consequences of action figure funerals, how seeing more of the kids at school could have streamlined and clarified certain plot points, what other powers Eric might secretly be harboring, and much more!
